Suryakumar Yadav's Return Boosts Mumbai Indians' Hopes Against Delhi Capitals
SKY's Comeback Adds Depth to Mumbai's Lineup in Crucial Encounter
The Mumbai Indians, who have lost their first three games, will be hopeful that Suryakumar Yadav's return could turn things around. On Sunday afternoon, they take on Delhi Capitals at the Wankhede.
After more than a year away from the field, Surya, also known as "SKY," will be playing for the first time since the T20I series in South Africa, where he captained India in the absence of Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya.
With the return of the top-ranked T20 batter in the world, Naman Dhir—whose strokeplay has impressed—may enter as an Impact Player.

The Mumbai Indians haven't exactly been at their worst, but they sure could use a win. They have secured the title despite having less favorable starts. Even though they dropped their first four games and five of the first six in 2015, they managed to win the championship with Rohit leading the way.
Given the growing distaste Mumbai Indians fans have for Hardik, it will be interesting to see how they perform under him this time around.
Due to a groin issue, Kuldeep Yadav is still questionable and needs to pass the fitness test in order to be available.
There are rumors that Delhi would start Jake Fraser McGurk, who owns the fastest List A hundred off 29 balls, instead of Mitchell Marsh.
